Sans Normal Orbus 7 is a very bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Myriad' by Adobe, 'Goodrich' by Hendra Pratama, 'Agilita' by Linotype, and 'Gill Sans Nova' by Monotype (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy sans with tightly set proportions and a broad, uniform stroke. Curves are simplified into rounded corners and squared-off bowls, creating a blocky silhouette with minimal modulation. Counters are relatively small and apertures tend toward closed, giving the face a dense texture and strong vertical rhythm. Terminals are blunt and decisively cut, and the overall construction favors geometric clarity over finesse.
Best suited to headlines and short-form messaging where impact and immediacy matter—posters, sports branding, punchy packaging statements, and bold signage. It can also work for UI labels or navigation when used at larger sizes with generous spacing to preserve clarity.
The tone is forceful and no-nonsense, with a tough, workmanlike presence. Its dense massing and compact width read as energetic and urgent, leaning toward sporty and industrial contexts rather than refined or delicate settings.
Designed to deliver maximum presence in a compact footprint, prioritizing bold legibility and a strong, uniform texture. The simplified, squared forms suggest an emphasis on durability and practicality for attention-grabbing display use.
In running text the weight creates strong color and high impact, but interior spaces can feel tight in smaller sizes. The numerals and capitals carry a consistent, sturdy build that maintains a uniform, poster-forward rhythm across lines.
